As reported from Engadget, there seems to be a fairly big issue for PS3 users trying to use Netflix with an imported system. As things stand, the new Netflix only works with a North American PS3, so those who are trying to access it with a different region PS3 are getting locked out.

Luckily, Netflix is already on the case and have stated that an update will be on the way to fix this problem – but it still doesn’t solve the immediate problem of no netflix on different PS3 consoles.

Engadget also highlight other issues with the service, including problems when Netflix requires you to have a new PSN user ID, and the fact that some users are seeing a completely different UI to others – bizarre.

Lastly, and perhaps the most important to some, is that there seems to be some concern over video quality, and if Netflix movies play in 1080i or 1080p.

Engadget has provided video and screenshot proof of the problems listed above, and they have already found some solutions to some of them. Let us know if you have been experiencing any of the problems, and if it is affecting your service or not.

The update is now rolling out to users in the US.

For those of you who are way ahead of us and are currently enjoying the new disc-free option, what are your thoughts on the service? Is everything working fine without a disc or have you noticed some problems?

As Engadget points out here, the discs that are now not-needed will continue to work, but only for another month before they are completely killed off.

PS3 users have had to wait a while to enjoy Netflix without a disc, so we’re sure theres a lot of satisfied consumers users out there, particularly those who opted for the PS3 as the primary entertainment source in the living room.

If you have already installed the disc-free update, let us know your initial thoughts on it.
